Thumbs up never used to do it, but (and it's a big butt)

Am with Jamo - used to despise it and not do it.

Ceramic wire changed that. Cut the runs, tweeze 'em up and in with white glue, moisten a brush to finesse glue - done.

A Bristol M1.c build showed this can be done for more complex runs.
Before that, I'd only rigged DML Tripes, a Dogbox and a Ni.28.

A mood thing, but satisfaction is there.

No idea how some of you manage the wonders you do in Dai-Riki or the other fantastic sewing jobs - I'd rather spend hours in Off Topic than do that...
